Spike ,'Touched'
This thread is for Buffista quotage. Posts that are profound, witty, or otherwise deserving of immortality go here. This is also Shrift's source for the BRQG, so be aware that if your words end up here, they'll also end up there. Finally, please note which thread spawned the quotage and please white-out anything that might be spoilery to Un-Americans.
In Buffy (spoilery):
Betsy: It's all about the connection, really.
Tragically, Jonathan was an S-Video in a world full of RJ45.
amych: sniff
erikaj: so, he couldn't connect?Poor Jonathan.
amych: Not without the right converter doohickey. Which you can probably get at Radio Shack, but who has time to stop there on your way to an apocalypse?
In Natter:
Trudy: He might just be the dumbest man alive though.
ita: If you can say that in a world with Keanu, I need cites.
amych and billytea, in Previously:
Also: "just a small change at the molecular level," or something to that effect. Which, if I remember my high school chemistry at all, can be a fairly major kind of change.
"Just a small change, just 2% or so of your genes. So the good news is, you're not a demon. On the down side, though, you may be a chimpanzee. It's still too early to tell."
Betsy, on heroes nonspecifically spoilerly in Buffy:
He lived a tool, he died a tool. And not even a Leatherman.
Madrigal in Buffy, unspoily:
Warren had a soul, Maggie Walsh had a soul, Faith had a soul, Gwen Post had a soul, Ethan had a soul, Ben had a soul, even Cordelia had a soul. It didn't stop any of them from doing their evil deeds, and had Cosmo declared exsanguination to the preferred diet plan of supermodels, Cordy probably would have been opening up the arteries of her classmates.
Fay Jay, in Due South:
Hell, Hallmark do Father's Day and Grandparents' Day and fucking Administrators' Day ( I got a card. I wanted to punch someone, for reasons that I find difficult to articulate, but would certainly include the word "patronising" and "meaningless shitty job" and many, many profanities) - I think that they ought to think about a Happy Slashers' Day, with its own line of Slash cards.
John H, Natter, in re not going to movies:
It's not healthy for a man with my diet and sedentary lifestyle to sit in a darkened room for ninety minutes wanting to kill strangers.
Beat me to it.
BHP in Buffy (non-spoilery)
Didn't Pmoon say it was actually either Klingon or Vulcan? In which case, stripping out the "my GOD this makeup itches" inflection would seriously distort the meaning.
